Thank you. Actually this is a brand new system for me and I need interconnects. I do however have tributaries speaker cables. I will look into these suggestions. It seems to me that for a tubey sound copper might be best, as I understand silver can brighten things up a bit
Higher end value cables
Need some advice folks. I have a pretty good audio system which is, I think, worthy of good cables. Honestly, the blue jeans cables look great for their price, but my reading indicates that bjc is terrific for mid to lower fi gear. So, love the prices of the bjc, but one step up in price and quality might be just the ticket. I have 11 components total, so I cannot afford hundreds of dollars per cable! Advice so needed...thanks a bunch and happy holidays

Great system! Wells is at the top of my list if I ever feel the need for more power. If you use some components much more than others, it might be worth it to splurge on those connections (and skimp on the least used, at least temporarily). Of course, if you're into DIY, then your budget will go much farther. FWIW In MY system, I found entry-level Cardas to sound significantly better than Audioquest, Belden, Mogami & Wireworld, and not at all like what some reviews would have made me believe. To me it's full, dynamic & detailed--the oft used term "laid-back" does not come to mind. I'm not trying to suggest that it's therefore right for you, so much as it's definitely worth the time to try at least a few options out. Good luck! |
Okay. Cardas and cerious technologies. Well, am looking for the best cable I can get for the money. Used cables for a better price will certainly help. Going to search now. Thank you, and yes, the wells is a great amp. Not sure what power you currently have...the wells is 150W per channel. Good power but not up there with a number of mono blocks and some other amps |
I have a First Watt M2 (25 watts Class A no feedback) & Croft Micro 25 (tube preamp), but that's no guarantee what works for me would work in your system. Nonetheless, here's a couple of cheaper Cardas options: Cardas Crosslink (slightly warm) https://www.ebay.com/itm/CARDAS-CROSSLINK-1I-RCA-to-RCA-Stereo-Interconnects-by-Corpse-Cable-1-5ft/3... KAB / CARDAS "SpiralAir" All Litz Coax (more neutral, at least with the Eichmann bullets) https://www.kabusa.com/frameset.htm?/ For used products, https://www.hifishark.com/ allows you to search multiple sites at once (including Audiogon). |
